How's this looking?

>>2385799
You're getting the idea. I would just choose one in this cause I imagine the cloth with the moon on it has a window behind it and the dino is just using the moonlight to read the book and that there is no secondary headlight on. It also would make sense cause the girl is sleeping suggesting bedtime--but that's just my interpretation.

Oh by the way cute pic.

Thanks, I think I kind of have a grasp, I would have tried to implement it but as nose bro pointed out the hands did not connect so I had to scrap it in order to make a pose that actually fit the hands.

>>2384184
Oh well, that is too bad I find it more appealing this way

>>2386055
Yeah, this drawing made me really realize that, especially that fucking spaceship thingy. Also that I still suck at drawing
humans from imagination, so I guess I will work on those two next.

>>2386279
Reminds you of starveil? Not sure where that comes from, maybe the colors.

And for the rest I'm sorry but I don't quite understand what you are saying. If you are asking a question the answer is yes, the skill gap if you compare me to someone like Dave Rapoza is huge.
But if it was meant to say: dude you have a long way to go. If that's what you meant, then yes I know I'm a beginner, I actually did this piece so I can compare it to my earlier pieces from when I started drawing about a year ago.

What's a good place to learn how to color animus that isn't ctrl+paint?

>>2386249
she seems to have no back muscle and her pelvis region and below seems to be in a completely different perspective. it looks like you started drawing a different figure.

one more: her eyes are the same size- shouldn't her right eye be tilted back/smaller since it's not fully frontal?

good job tho. nice lines, nice style

Thank you for your helpful contribution.

>>2386408
Not him but that's not a bad advice, at first i was looking at artists and couldn't even understand what i was seeing, i just knew that it looked good and i liked it,
afther pirating Color and Light by James Gurney and Designing with Color and Light with Nathan Fowkes and researched more about color theory i could actually see drawings i liked and understand
how and why they did what they did and so pass some of it on my own drawings.

>>2386393

D-d-do you really think so? I mean I've been here for years now and yah know I always wanted to be a trip fag. Maybe I should start simple and be a namefag though and then graduate to a tripcode. OOohh doushiyou ka naaa?

>>2386450
But color theory alone isn't going to make you magically know how to paint. Honestly I'm just looking for handy digital-specific tricks to speed up the process and make it less of a pain in the ass. Right now inking and coloring is taking at least 30x the time it takes to complete a pencil sketch.

>>2386523
There are no shortcuts in art, if you find one it is usually a crutch and will only harm you in the long run.

Just bite through the pain, watch how other artists do it and mimic their process.

She? the hair included but the body looks more manly - can't even see sideboobs, the waist is pretty straight. I think the figure's upper body is much wider than the hips.

the arms don't feel natural... when you try to pick something up, do you keep your arm straight out? (i guess deadlifts) maybe there are other physics involved here that explain why it's that way

the wings don't work with the rest of the body. the wings are facing straight at us but the figure is turned a little, no?

I'm sorry I'm no pro or anything and you need work in some areas but I kinda like it. It's a cute start.

>>2388276
you literally 'fixed' next to nothing.
more detail to the eyes and smoothened the line of her back, but did you not see how fucked up the arm and shoulder connecting to the ribcage are, and how differently they look in >>2388202
The line of her back also extends down much lower and the breasts on your pic vs the ref are so poorly defined and smudged out beyond recognition. It's obvious you don't have the underlying anatomical knowledge, but atleast use your eyes.

>>2388204
The faces on the first two are pretty shitty. All of their arms are too short, and all of their hips are disproportionate.

>>2389420
you can't draw feet either apparently

>>2389427

yeh kinda, i was doing this without reference and i had a hard time doing the feet

>>2389436
but by hiding the feet, you're detracting from the composition as well. don't neglect your studies, mang

>>2389443

yeah i know, how is the rest of the body though- torso, arms, legs?

>>2389462
it literally doesn't even matter, it looks bad but it looks worse because of the noob concealment of the feet

you know it's not that good man, you have eyes. practice more.

>>2389462
Not too good, sorry.
There are pretty glaring anatomical problems (the pelvis for example, and the knees or lack thereof), too much reliance on outlines as a means of conveying form (breasts, calves and neck for instance), the overall form is very stiff and static, the colours are not blended well and the values are off.
Practice, practice, practice. Draw from life, you can only get so far without that, and don't be afraid of drawing the trickier stuff like hands and feet just because you're bad at it, practice makes perfect.

>>2389436
>i was doing this without reference
for what purpose? there's literally no downside to using reference

>>2389484

well, my theory is that i see what mistakes I make when I draw without reference. I can (relatively) draw much better when using ref, but its more challenging to do so from imagination.
For example for this piece I improved a lot on the figure, making it less stiff than my previous drawings. I draw from ref too but dont post them bcuz i dont want to.

>>2389475

You dont need to be sorry man, I always enjoy criticizm, /ic/ made me improve drawing from imagination dramatically over these past weeks thanks to crits.

this piece had its good areas and its problem areas, i particularly like the brushwork around the top of the hair, it brings a sense of detail without being over the top. as for areas that need a bit more work, i'd advise softening some edges while keeping some hard as to help guide to eyes to key focal points. other than that, i'd say try to use more references, most notably for the facial features and the hands, it would really help strengthen them. keep up the good work!

Maybe try keeping the top half of the iris in shadow? All your highlights and sparkles in the eye are pretty but it makes the iris bulge out. My rendition is far from perfect but notice how the top lid covers more of the eye in a neutral position than the bottom lid.

Maybe you're onto something but I also believe some of us have this particularly kind of flawed works that people can't help but remark the things you failed at.

Co-prosperity sphere in action.

>>2390392
Maybe break it up with some internal lines to define volumes. Maybe make the wrist part a big sphere instead of a can, and have the armguard be more tapered to the elbow, that way you have a wedge shape to convey direction and internal division to show volume, its more interesting than a can shape.

Do some life drawings before you draw from imagination. I don't mean only draw from life until you're great, just draw a similar subject from life before you draw it from imagination. It doesn't have to be the same shape, pose, lighting, etc. it just makes you think of how your imagined object would look in real life.

>>2388228
If your problem is the feathers, it's all your fault that you tried to copy so annoying repetitive and complicated shapes. It's grinding work. If the amount of feathers doesn't match up perfectly, don't worry too much. There is little gain in doing that.

>How do I make her gauntlets more appealing?
Use flowing shapes. The blocky cylinders look jarring in contrast to the rest of the character.
Try looking at Portal guns or boxing gloves and derive something from those types of forms. A rain drop shape would also work nicely.
You need to work more on using those types of forms in general.

Bro these, the ones I have, were classified as A, B, C originally they came on a CD as they had some html code and they were mean to watch it on the browser.

What I did was get rid of all that shit, take the images and put them in 3 different folders, with out the other files (non image and code shit) so their study would be easier.

there´s another set of jap. models in color of a secretary, maid, casual and the schoolgirl which I never could get.

One day I realize none of you guys had them, it was christmas so I decided to share all my collection, including old and modern black and white pose collection.

Then the SOB, russian fag came and derailled the thread.

If you are reading you SOB I swear I will find you and shove my wacom pencil up your ass.

End of story.

P.S. I had to erase some of them because I reached the limit when trying to upload some cubebrush videos (bad idea, heavy as fuck, 4hrs to upload). Pic related a study of one of the "secretary" pose set.

Draw from life, you learn the rules before you "break them" if you are copying off a model and give her an animu head you will get it wrong which seems to be exactly what you are doing study the proportions of a figure.

After you understand how Artists are able to change proportions based off life you will draw with this knowledge remember that your moeshit is based from life would you rather remain a xerox machine able to copy but not understanding the how and why or be creative and draw from imagination?
